Trying to hold on
As the bells they start to ring
Because we know how time flies
And we're riding on the wing
Music plays from up above
And fills the streets with light
The City once our own is ours again
If only for a night
If only for a night

Track Name: Sense

Sensing you, sensing me too,
Even though I can't see you.
I feel you now,
Through the air somehow,
Even though I can't see you.

Through closed eyes it slowly come to view.
The sound of silence sings inside of you.
Letting go of what we think we know,
An empty mind has room to grow.
(x2)

I look for you
It's all I can do.
I cannot stop 'till I find you.
You're up above
I know my love
You're all around
I can feel you

You're in the air
You're everywhere
I follow wherever you go
Even though I can't see you

Track Name: Widen Your Scope

Stuck in your ways, lost in a grand illusion,
Wishing you could see the truth beyond the lies.
Finding your own grace, avoiding quick solutions.
It's there before you, just open your eyes.
Sometimes when you think you're gonna lose,
Feel that theres something you've gotta prove,
It messes with your mind, skews your point of view
You're losing hope inside, what can you do?

Find the strength to let in the light,
You can trust in hope.
Draw the blinds within your mind
And widen your scope.

Searching within, allow the petals to unfold,
They drift away to reveal an open heart.
Shedding your own skin, avoiding all the truths untold
The path is yours, you know where to start.
You must become acquainted with your soul,
Where mind and body become whole.
You've scratched the surface, now go below,
The deeper the depths, the more you know.

Find the strength to let in the light,
You can trust in hope.
Draw the blinds within your mind
And widen your scope.

Track Name: Purpose

Unsure of yourself
And your heart is shaking.
You say that you can't go,
But the world is waiting.
There's so much you can do
And only you can do it.
You hold the power of the world,
If only you knew it.

When you feel the fire burn,
Embers in your heart.
Emptiness is filled with love and light to show you how.
You have found your purpose now.

When doubt, like a cloud,
Comes in and blocks out the light.
Someone has clipped your wings,
Shot you down in flight.
Remember you're not alone,
Use your voice and sing.
'Cause with the power of the world
You can do anything.

When you feel the fire burn,
Embers in your heart.
Emptiness is filled with love and light to show you how.
You have found your purpose now.

Track Name: Slow It Down

It's time to get back down to Earth.
I can feel it in my bones, for what it's worth.
Let your mind just drift away
So you can return to your body.
Calm your mind and cool your head.
Let the beat drown out the sound.
Of a million minds, can't find the time to slow it down.

The more you search,
The less you find.
All your thoughts can makes you blind
To the things you already know,
Hidden deep within your soul.

The water is cloudy far from shore.
In silent stillness, sand will settle to the floor.
It's time to swim and find the land.
For peace and your release await you in the sand.
Plant your feet and cool your head.
Don't let your instincts be mislead
By all the facts you think you know,
Because the wisest words come from the Earth to help you grow.

The more you search,
The less you find.
All your thoughts can makes you blind
To the things you already know,
Hidden deep within your soul.

A thousand thoughts
Get in the way.
The conscious mind, it has too much to say.
It'll keep you running 'round,
Unless you find the time to slow it down.
